I've thinking that the One Bowl Wonders need to be a regular Wednesday post, but then again I'm probably going to run out of ideas real quick. Wouldn't that be awful?! With that said I present another one bowl wonder that I will be eating tonight as my son will not be home. I know, that sounds so sad and pathetic doesn't it? He's going off to a Padre's game with friends and ol' mom is just gonna sit home by herself. Boo Hoo me, right? Wrong. I'm gonna make this baby, sit down in front of my computer and play a new game that I just purchased and have been waiting for the opportunity to play. Since this only takes about 10 minutes to make, my game play time is gonna go way up. The other reason that I like the one bowl wonders, the heat outside. It has stayed consistently in the 90's here and I have no desire to turn on the oven or the stove top. So far everything I've cooked lately has been either in the microwave or on the BBQ and that includes a Beef Soup with Parsnips (recipe coming later this week) and Milk Chicken. This Rotini recipe is great for a quick lunch or dinner and again perfect if living in a dorm. This recipe is also one that you can modify by adding cooked chicken, tofu or other vegetables.

Place 2 cups of water into a microwavable bowl and heat for at least 3 minutes. Add the Rotini noodles and heat for 3 1/2 minutesStir the noodlesHeat for another 3 minutesTest your noodles for doneness, if you want them al dante after the first heating only heat for 2 minutes and then check.Take out of the microwave very, very carefully as it will be hot.Drain the waterAdd the Diced tomatoes, for mine I only used 3/4 of the can but you can put in as much as you like.Heat for 1 minute but this is optional. The noodles are hot enough to heat up the sauce. I don't heat it at this point.Salt and Pepper to tasteAdd the Parmesan CheeseAdd the Basil torn up (optional)Consume
